The 2023 Boston Whaler 280 Vantage is a dual-console runabout built on fiberglass, measuring 27.75 feet long with a 9.50-foot beam. It is powered by twin 300 horsepower Mercury outboards and runs on gasoline. The boat has approximately 25 hours of engine time.
The 280 Vantage centers around family comfort and versatility. Its dual-console layout pairs convertible seating arrangements with ample deck space. The portside lounge converts to multiple configurations, and a dive door on the port side allows easy water entry and dock access. The integrated hardtop and full windshield shield occupants from weather while maintaining sight lines.
Entertainment and cooking are integrated into the design through a grill station in the cockpit, which stows when not in use. Fishing capability is built in with dedicated rod holders, cockpit fishboxes, and a transom livewell. The redesigned bow features both a windlass and boarding ladder. The hardtop can be fitted with an electric Sureshade for additional shade control.
The boat comes equipped with an electric grill and includes Mercury warranty coverage through December 2026, with the option to extend. A new trailer is available for separate quotation.
